Physiognomic unit lookup table (dBase III format) that provides labels, descriptions and colors used to plot the vegetation units on the final version of the CAVM. The table can be linked to the Arc/Info data set. The SYMBOL item refers to the Arc/Info Pantone shadeset.
A detailed description of the vegetation units can be obtained from the most recent draft of the CAVM map. Modified final dataset for export as an ArcInfo polygon coverage. Last updated 2003-Dec-10
